The technical requirements for the operation of equipment for fire extinguishing installations in general and their individual elements are outlined.

The procedure for organizing testing and acceptance into operation of newly installed fire extinguishing installations and the regulations for conducting inspections of the technical condition of equipment, equipment and instruments of the fire extinguishing installation and the timing of the audit of the entire installation have been determined.

Typical malfunctions that may occur during the operation of a fire extinguishing installation are described and recommendations for their elimination are given.

The basic safety requirements for the operation of foam fire extinguishing installations are indicated.

The forms of washing acts and hydraulic test pressure and distribution pipelines of fire extinguishing installations, form of logbook for maintenance and repair of fire extinguishing installations, form of fire test report.

With the publication of this Instruction, the “Instructions for the operation of fire extinguishing installations using air-mechanical foam” (M: SPO Soyuztekhenergo, 1980) becomes invalid.

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1. Air-mechanical foam is the most effective fire extinguishing agent for extinguishing fires of classes A (combustion of solid substances) and B (combustion of liquid substances).

1.2. To obtain air-mechanical foam, foam concentrates and fire fighting equipment are used. Depending on the area of ​​application, foam concentrates are divided into two classification groups: general and intended purpose. To foam concentrates general purpose include: PO-3NP, PO-3AI TEAS. Foaming agents for special purposes include: “Sampo”, “Morskoy”, “Potok”, “Film-forming”, “Foretol”, “Universal”, POF-9M.

Special purpose foam concentrates differ from general purpose foam concentrates in their higher fire extinguishing ability due to the use of recycled additives.

All foaming agents for general and special purposes do not lose their original physical and chemical properties when subjected to repeated freezing and subsequent gradual thawing.

Energy plants mainly use general purpose foaming agents.

1.3. To extinguish fires at transformers and reactors, low-expansion air-mechanical foam is used, and at fuel oil and oil industries, medium-expansion foam is used.

1.2. To determine the crystalline precipitate, a foaming agent pre-filtered at 20 ° C is poured in an amount of 250 cm 3 into a cylinder with a capacity of 250 - 500 cm 3 and placed in a refrigerator at a temperature of (3 + 2) ° C. After 24 hours of exposure there should be no formation of crystalline sediment visible to the naked eye.

2 . DETERMINATION OF PORNING TEMPERATURE

The test tube is closed with a stopper with a thermometer inserted into it and placed in a test tube with a diameter of 30 mm so that the walls of the test tube are at the same distance from the walls of the coupling.

The assembled device is placed in a vessel with a cooling mixture, the temperature of which should be 5 °C below the expected freezing temperature of the foam concentrate.

The pour point is taken to be the value established after the decline and rise.

2.3 . Processing the results

Determination of the pour point is carried out 3 - 4 times. The final result is the arithmetic mean of all determinations.

3.3.2 . Carrying out tests

Measure 100 ml of ethyl alcohol with a cylinder and place it in a glass, which is placed on a scale. Foam (obtained in accordance with the requirements of clause 6.2) is applied to the surface of the alcohol in an amount of (8 + 0.5) g. In the event of the formation or destruction of foam in the process of open areas of the surface of the alcohol or peeling of the foam when large air bubbles form, it should be leveled with a glass rod foam over the entire surface of the alcohol, without touching the separating gel-like film.

A stopwatch records the time from the moment the first portion of foam is applied to the alcohol until open areas of the surface of the alcohol or separating film appear. This time determines the stability of the foam on the surface of the alcohol. The test is carried out three times. The arithmetic mean is taken as the final result.

4 . DETERMINATION OF FOAM EXPANSION ON A MEDIUM EXPANSION FOAM GENERATOR

4.1 . Equipment, materials, reagents

Generator GPS-200 or GPS-600 according to GOST 12962-80.

A pump providing a solution supply of at least 2 dm 3 /s for (GPS-200) or at least 6 dm 3 /s for (GPS-600) at a pressure in front of the foam generator of 0.6 - 1.0 MPa.

Fire pressure flax jute hose with a diameter of 51 mm according to RSFSR TU 40-1069-81.

Fire suction hose according to GOST 5398-76.

A metal container with a capacity of at least 200 dm 3 for preparing solutions.

A metal container of at least 100 dm 3, weighing no more than 10 kg for collecting foam.

Static weighing scales in accordance with GOST 23676-79 of medium accuracy class with the largest weighing limit of 30 kg.

Pressure gauge in accordance with GOST 2405-80 with an upper pressure measurement limit of 1.0 MPa, accuracy class 2.5, splash-proof design, installed at the pump outlet.

Drinking water according to GOST 2874-82.

4.2 . Carrying out the test

200 dm 3 of a working solution of a foaming agent is prepared in a container. The prepared solution is fed through a suction hose by a pump under a pressure of 0.6 MPa into a pressure hose, at the outlet of which a generator is installed.

After obtaining stable foam from the generator, fill the container for collecting foam, and the entire volume must be uniformly filled; The formation of voids is not allowed. The mass of foam in the container is determined by weighing on a scale.

4.3 . Processing the results

The foam ratio K is determined by the formula:

where V is the volume of foam, m 3;

V 1 is the volume of the foaming agent solution in cubic decimeters, numerically equal to the mass of the foam, kg.

The arithmetic mean of three determinations is taken as the result of the determination.
